This story reminds me of when Chad was in 2nd grade in a private, Christian school. One day he asked me . . “Mom, will you tell me every cuss word you know? I don’t know which words are bad so you should tell me so I don’t say them!” Right! I could see him using a bad word at school and telling them his mom taught that to him.
OK . . Vince is Sicilian and his language can still shock me. Tonight I put on my Christmas elf pajamas. He was sitting in the living room when I walked out.
Use your imagination because I’m not saying the words he used. He said . . kinda . . “Oh, my goodness. I’m sleeping with a frickin’ elf!” Then he wanted to take a picture. I had washed my hair and it was still wet and just towel dried. I said NO! No picture.
Never a dull moment around here but that keeps us young and happy.

Any time my son got in trouble at school he told them his mom taught him everything he knew. So maybe they thought I was a rotten parent, but I never got a call from the school about anything! Maybe that was a blessing.

You can bet those school teachers/administrators hear it all.

My friend (age 50ish?) cusses the way her Sicilian father taught her. When she’s really angry, it’s “Shut the door! Shut the door! Just SHUT THE DOOR!” No matter. And it has absolutely nothing to do with a door. Or “Peach Fuzz!” Or something like that. I imagine it’s caused a little confusion in the office for newly hired employees. But comedy also. It’s obvious when she’s gotten off the phone with an unreasonable client.

That is funny! One year I got Pat some of those all in one that looks like a union suit but it had a lot of Moose’s on it! Kind of like Bullwinkle! Even has the buttons on the back and the flap! LOL He does wear them when it gets cold!
